A CMR insurance protects the carrier against liability for damage to goods. A cargo insurance insures the value of the goods themselves, usually taken out by the owner of the goods.
Goods can be exposed to various risks during transport. An accident, theft, damage during loading and unloading, or extreme weather conditions can lead to the loss or damage of your goods.
With a goods insurance, you protect your business against these financial risks. This insurance covers damage to goods during transport, regardless of whether the transport takes place by road, sea, air, or rail.
The specialists at Van Dessel help you put together a transport insurance policy that matches your logistics chain, the nature of your goods, and the mode of transport.
